Can someone help me please

Chemistry
1 answer:
MArishka [77]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Group 4A (or IVA) of the periodic table includes the nonmetal carbon (C), the metalloids silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge), the metals tin (Sn) and lead (Pb), and the yet-unnamed artificially-produced element ununquadium (Uuq).

The Group 4A elements have four valence electrons in their highest-energy orbitals (ns2np2). Carbon and silicon can form ionic compounds by gaining four electrons, forming the carbide anion (C4-) and silicide anion (Si4-), but they more frequently form compounds through covalent bonding. Tin and lead can lose either their outermost p electrons to form 2+ charges (Sn2+, the stannous ion, and Pb2+, the plumbous ion) or their outermost s and p electrons to form 4+ charges (Sn4+, the stannic ion, and Pb4+, the plumbic ion).

Carbon (C, Z=6).

Carbon is most familiar as a black solid is graphite, coal, and charcoal, or as the hard, crystalline diamond form. The name is derived from the Latin word for charcoal, carbo. It is found in the Earth's crust at a concentration of 480 ppm, making it the 15th most abundant element. It is found in form of calcium carbonate, CaCO3, in minerals such as limestone, marble, and dolomite (a mixture of calcium and

Menthol, the substance we can smell in mentholated cough drops, is composed of c, h, and o. a 9.045×10−2 −mg sample of menthol i
Ket [755]

Answer:

            Empirical Formula  =  C₁₀H₂₀O

Solution:

Data Given:

                      Mass of Menthol  =  9.045 × 10⁻² mg  =  9.045 × 10⁻⁵ g

                      Mass of CO₂  =  0.2546 mg  =  0.0002546 g

                      Mass of H₂O  =  0.1043 mg  =  0.0001043 g

Step 1: Calculate %age of Elements as;

                      %C  =  (mass of CO₂ ÷ Mass of sample) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

                      %C  =  (0.0002546 ÷ 9.045 × 10⁻⁵) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

                      %C  =  (2.814) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

                      %C  =  2.814 × 0.2727 × 100

                      %C  =  76.73 %


                      %H  =  (mass of H₂O ÷ Mass of sample) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

                      %H  =  (0.0001043 ÷ 9.045 × 10⁻⁵) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

                      %H  =  (1.153) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

                      %H  =  1.153 × 0.1120 × 100

                     %H  =  12.91 %


                      %O  =  100% - (%C + %H)

                      %O  =  100% - (76.73% + 12.91%)

                      %O  =  100% - 89.64%

                     %O  =  10.36 %

Step 2: Calculate Moles of each Element;

                      Moles of C  =  %C ÷ At.Mass of C

                      Moles of C  = 76.73 ÷ 12.01

                     Moles of C  =  6.3888 mol


                      Moles of H  =  %H ÷ At.Mass of H

                      Moles of H  = 12.91 ÷ 1.01

                      Moles of H  =  12.7821 mol


                      Moles of O  =  %O ÷ At.Mass of O

                      Moles of O  = 10.36 ÷ 16.0

                      Moles of O  =  0.6475 mol

Step 3: Find out mole ratio and simplify it;

                C                                        H                                     O

            6.3888                              12.7821                            0.6475

     6.3888/0.6475                  12.7821/0.6475                 0.6475/0.6475

               9.86                                   19.74                                   1

             ≈ 10                                      ≈ 20                                     1

Result:

         Empirical Formula  =  C₁₀H₂₀O₁

Why is the chemical formula magnesium sulfide written as MgS and NOT Mg2S2?
Anna71 [15]

Explanation:

The chemical formula magnesium sulfide written as MgS and NOT Mg_{2}S_{2} because charge on magnesium ion is +2 and charge on sulfide ion is -2.

Therefore, these charges will cancel out each other as we write the formula in simplest crisscross  method.

Also, the numbers in a chemical formula display the total number of atoms attached with each other or central atom.

For example, in CaCl_{2} there are two chlorine atoms attached to one calcium atom.

Therefore, MgS denotes one sulfur atom is attached to magnesium atom. Hence, we do not write the formula of magnesium sulfide as Mg_{2}S_{2} because this shows two magnesium atoms are attached to two sulfur atoms which is not true.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

C) the study of the composition of the atom.

Explanation:

A research can be defined as a systematic investigation or careful consideration of study with respect to a particular problem using scientific methods such as collection of data, documenting critical information, analysis of data, and the establishment of facts in order to reach new conclusions.

Similarly, a basic research is an approach to research that's typically theoritical and it's aimed at developing a theory, searching for the truth or gain a better understanding about a phenomenon, subject, or basic laws on nature.

In this context, an example of basic research is the study of the composition of the atom.

An atom can be defined as the smallest unit comprising of matter that forms all chemical elements. Thus, atoms are basically the building blocks of matters and as such determines or defines the structure of a chemical element.

Generally, atoms are typically made up of three distinct particles and these are protons, neutrons and electrons.
